# "New start in every inning" It is more valuable because it is the 5th starter who catches the ace, w

He also excelled as a middle pitcher. However, after switching to the starting pitcher, he pitched several levels higher. He upgraded the entire starting lineup by playing as a starting pitcher who is a beginner and not a beginner. LG Lee Jung-yong (27) told the secret of his performance against a strong starting pitcher.

Lee Jung-yong started against Daegu Samsung on the 16th and threw 81 pitches, winning his fifth win of the season with six innings, 0 walks, one strikeout, and two runs. He was in crisis with runners on first and second base with no outs in the first inning and runners on first and third base with no outs in the fifth inning, but he allowed only one point each. He did not give up a single hit to opposing cleanups Koo Ja-wook and Kang Min-ho, creating an opportunity for the team to win.

He played more than five innings in three consecutive games from the match against Kiwoom in Jamsil on the 2nd, when he filled the number of pitches. He will continue his peak performance with two runs in 17 innings in a total of three games. He won his first victory after switching to Gwangju KIA on the 9th and succeeded in winning two consecutive games with his performance that day.

What's interesting is the opposing starters who have matched up with Lee Jung-yong. Ahn Woo-jin started against Kiwoom and Lee Eui-ri against LG against KIA. The game against Samsung is David Buchanan. Buchanan played only two innings due to sudden neck pain, but the match-up structure was "five starts vs. one start." Both the team and Lee Jung-yong were expected to struggle, but Lee Jung-yong has established himself as the "5th starter to catch the ace," and LG will also cruise with Lee Jung-yong.

It's not just a result. Currently, it is no exaggeration to say that Lee is a different pitcher from his former middle pitcher Lee Jung-yong. The same part was developed in stable pitching balance and fastball pitch. Everything else. As the second pitch type, the number of pitches per inning was greatly reduced by installing forkballs instead of sliders. With the creation of a decisive ball, he actively competes with the batter at a fast tempo. Beasts' concentration is maintained naturally.

Lee Jung-yong revealed his clear goal as a starting pitcher after his team won 6-3 on the 16th and became a winning pitcher. He said, "I think the pitchers behind me can play comfortably if I throw long innings. I thought I'd throw six innings and come down. "I'm glad I came down after achieving my goal," he said with a smile. [토토사이트](https://www.toto365.pro)

LG starter Lee Jung-yong is pitching well against Daegu Samsung on the 16th.

Regarding the moment when Park Dong-won, who makes up the battery, hit a grand slam, he said, "I gave the lead to the opponent, but I didn't think the team would lose just because I went down. "I thought Dongwon would do it for me, and he also solved it," he thanked the catcher for hitting the winning home run.

Regarding the comparison between starting pitchers and middle pitchers, "The starting pitcher seems to have a lot of tension, and the middle pitcher seems to have a lot of pressure. "I think I'm going to throw a long inning unlike when I throw in the middle, and even if one inning is bad, I'm going to control my mind by thinking that the next inning will start anew," he said.

I know what's important as a starting pitcher. Unlike the middle, the starter has the next chance even if he loses a point in one inning. He also naturally increased his pitching type and became a four-pitch pitcher. I really found the right seat for me.

Park Dong-won did not just joke with Lee Jung-yong, saying, "Can't we postpone the military for another year?" LG completed the starting lineup only in the second half of the season with Lee Jung-yong filling the starting lineup. With "Ace Killer" Lee Jung-yong, he is confident in starting and matching up the opponent's special express.
